tion upon the latter bill tomorrow or at
the latest Tuesday night.
MIR. Beck Will make an early effort to
preVentturther postpOnement OF the bill 10
prohibit members OF Congress from act
ing as RAILROAD attorneys, and as he has
made concessions TO the convenience OF
other Senators number of times when
it seemed to be his right to Insist upon
consideration OF the measure, he is likely
TO ma his opportunity during this Week.
The sundry civil bill will probably be
reported from the Appropriations Com
mittee on Wednesday or Thursday and
be called up for debate the next day.
The British extradtiOn treaty is the
unfinished business Of toe secret session,

voted to its consideration.

LONDON, Jan. 23.-Rt. Hon. Henry
Campbell Bannerman, Liberal member of
Parliament and formerly Chief Secretary
for Ireland, in a speech at Culross, near
Inverkeithing, on Saturday, said he be-
lieved that when home rule was granted
to Ireland Mr.. Parnell would be the Con-

landlords, while Mr.. ParnelPs present

Robbers STOP A TRAIN.
Passengers Left on a TrestIe and
the Cars Looted.


FORT WORTH, TEX, Jan. 23.-At 3
O'Clock this morning, as an east-bound
Texas and Pacific express was pulling
out of Gordon, a small station sixty miles
west of here, two masked and armed men
jumped on the engine and covered the
engineer and tiremen with revolvers. The
engineer was forced to pull ahead until
the train reached high trestle two miles
east of Gordon. AS soon as the
engine and baggage and mail cars
had passed over the trestle the
train stopped, leaving the passenger
coaches on the trestle. At this point the
masked men were reinforced by SIX as
slstants. The robbers then went through
the express car, taking all the money and
valuables in the safe, the amount being
estimated at from $1,000 to $5,000 al
though the Pacific express office refuse
to state the exact amount stolen. The
robbers then proceeded to the mail car,
where they obtained twenty-eight regis
tered packages. The passengers were
not disturbed and their coaches being on
the high trestle they could not get out to
assist the trainmen. There is no clue to
robbers,

THE OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
Considerable speculation as to Who
They Will be.

9iAGN W III Dts
WASHINGTON, Jan. 23.-There is
great deal OF speculation relative TO the
commissioners to be appointed to admin
lister the new State commerce law. 1t is
understood that three OF the five commits
sioners will be Democrats and two Re-
publcans. The bill does not 40 into
effect until sixty days after the President
signs it. There is therefore plenty OF
time to decide upon the commissioners.
The men now talked of here are notlikely
to be appointed, with perhaps the eXcep-
ton of Representative Morrison. The
President likes Morrison and knows that
he is an honest man. he was beaten at
the late election and will be out of lob
after March 4. There is pretty certain to
be one Southern Democrat on the COM
mission. 1t would not be surprising if
Senator Conger should be one of the Re-
publican commissioners.
There is great variety of opinion
relative to the amount that will be re-
quired TO meet the demands of the Mex
lean pension bill. Mr.. Randall thinks
100000 will be required, Mr.. Holman
$50, 100000. There are those who are
well informed, however, WHO think that
amount will reach $40,000,000.
